Grégory Castiglia was born in the Paris region in 1979.

His father was an entrepreneur and his mother a painter. He believes he inherited both ambition and creativity from them.

​

From a very young age, Greg created works drawn from his own imagination. Over the years, he developed his own distinct artistic identity.

​

Deeply attached to the Mediterranean basin, his region of the heart, he left the Paris region to settle in Provence in 2013. This move had a strong influence on his creative universe.

Self-taught, he refined his technique and creativity through various projects, gradually achieving a unique artistic identity in recent years.

​

In 2021, Greg felt the need for change. In his forties, he turned the page after 22 years in the event industry to embrace new challenges, transforming his studio into a laboratory for artistic experimentation.

​

His first sculptures were created in 2021 and now represent the entirety of his work.

Greg is particularly fascinated by assembling industrial materials—especially thousands of nuts—to shape human silhouettes, most often female, and figurative forms that combine the rawness of metal with the sensuality of curves. This striking and successful aesthetic paradox softens the harshness of the metal. He also creates very large-scale tin masks covered in gold leaf.

Recurring themes in his work include the nude, figuration, the grace of the body, and the expression of subtle emotions through sculpture.

​

In 2023, strengthened by this growing recognition, galleries opened their doors to him.

Grégory sees art as a vehicle for elevation; he seeks to convey the most subtle emotions through his creations.

​

He believes that assembling metal pieces creates a dialogue about form, presence, and the human experience.
